Hamawaki Onsen
A Historic Onsen Beloved in Beppu
The name 'Hamawaki Onsen' originates from the Japanese words for the way the water bubbles up (waki) along the beach (hama). Together with Kannawa Onsen, it is considered one of the birthplaces of Beppu Onsen. Known for its simple onsen water with a soft, mild texture that is beloved by many.
This area retains many old buildings, offering a nostalgic atmosphere. One of its highlights is the abundance of traditional communal bathhouses, rich in history. There are also city-run onsen open late into the night, making it a perfect spot to soothe your body after a day of sightseeing. In addition to the communal baths, you can enjoy modern onsen facilities for a more casual experience. Be sure to explore both!
